ARRIVAL OF THE SHIP OOLLINGWOOD FROM LONDON AT WELLINGTON.

It is our painful duty to have to chronicle the arrival of the above ship with so much sickness on board, and wo regret to add that death lias been very busy amongst the immigrants during the voyage from London. No less than twenty deaths occurred, eighteen being children, and one an adult, who fell victims to those dread maladies, scarlatina, scarlet, typhoid, and cntric fevers. A melancholy death took place on the 30th of May, one of the married men, named Alfred Button, committing suicide by jumping overboard. The reasons assigned for this rash act are that Button was suffering from a depression of spirits in consequence of his wife and family being stricken down with sickness. Dr Hamilton and his son—his subordinate —were also attacked by fevet, but we are happy to say they are now quite convalescent. At present there arc fifty cases under treatment for typhoid fever and scarlatina, but we trust that the change of air and diet will work wonders amongst the patients. The task of landing the immigrants at forties Island was satisfactorily effected on Saturday, under the able supervision of the immigration authorities, and Captain Black and Dr Hamilton, of the Collingwood.

The Collingwood is a splendid iron clipper ship, and has proved herself to be a very fast sailer, making the run in eighty-four days. We have been unable to obtain a full report of the passage, but we learn that she finally took leave of the pilot in the English Channel on the 16th of April, and experienced moderate fine weather throughout the passage. In all probability the Collingwood will come up to the wharf about the end of this week. Before so doing she wiil be properly fumigated and cleansed, so that all danger of any disease spreading will be removed. —“New Zealand Times,” July 10th.
